New York State Laborers Organizing Fund members hold a rally outside of an American Wind Energy Association investor conference at the Roosevelt Hotel in Midtown, Manhattan.

An upstate wind energy project has ruffled some feathers with a union that says the company’s not paying workers a fair wage.

More than a dozen members of the New York State Laborers Organizing Fund held a rally in front of a Midtown, Manhattan, hotel Wednesday, where the American Wind Energy Association investor conference was held.

The laborers blasted the hiring of out-of-state workers to build a wind farm in Lewis County. And the workers won’t get paid the prevailing wage, the laborers said.

The rally Wednesday was mostly pointed at EDF Renewable Energy, a California-based company involved in the wind farm project.
